Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club - North Course

Our first trip around the north course. Condition was near perfect. Greens recently punched but they were still fast and true. Some very challenging reads. We will be back!

Love the layout …. But …. The bunkers were a mess. A few holes they were well beyond just being washed out; they had weeds in them. The greens were B+ — some damage from sand hill cranes. Some bare spots in the fairways B- . Tees were more bare spots yet (C+).

Great course, challenging. Generous open fairways. Watch out for large bunkers. Greens were fast and a bit tricky to read. We'd play again, soon.

This was my first time playing at Lake Jovita and may be my last. I love the course layout. Everything is right in front of you and the gps in the carts is spot on. The tees were OK and the greens ran true even though they are 4-7 days from fully recovering from aeration.

However, the fairways were spotty. Compared to other courses that I have played recently in the same area, the conditions at Lake Jovita was sub standard. In addition the other course were about $30 less expensive to play at this time of year. I did not find the course worth the green fees.

On a side note, My playing partner and I arrived at different times and payed separately. I arrived first and was charged full rate. My partner arrived later and was issued a credit of $20 for future play due to aeration recovery. I found the lack of consistency unusual.

I was expecting a lot more for $65 on a weekday at 11 am. There were several dead patches on the fairways- nothing worse than getting penalized for a beautiful drive down middle of the fairway. Then, the greens were not rolling well at all. They were aerified a couple weeks ago and pro shop said they were fine, but I’ve played better greens that were aerified day before. Only saving grace was that we were only ones on the course and pace was great. But, I played a course with better conditions for half the price day before. Staff not that friendly either. Will not return or recommend.

The North course was in spectacular condition! Greens were running 10 to 11. Fairways and tee boxes we’ll manicured. Play was a little slower than usual because the South Course was closed due to aerification. I would recommend the courses at Lake Jovita to everyone! You won’t be disappointed

A little bit pricey, but worth every penny . Great condition. Fantastic greens. Only 1 thing bothers me , the inside pro shop staff are rude every time I play there. Seems they are not tp happy about golf now customers.

Great course, great conditions. Worth every penny. Starter was very friendly & helpful .

Played the north course and was great again. Layout is good and course conditions are great. Either course at Lake Jovita is one of the best in Florida. Don’t miss out and play these gems .

A member of our foursome had his young son with him who doesn't play and was just going to ride because there was no school. We show up to the starter with 3 carts and he sends them back to the pro shop saying we should only have 2 carts and he needed to pay the 33$ cart fee, that's all fine. Him and his son go back to pay for a 3rd cart but the grumpy power tripping old man at the counter wouldn't let them and they both ended up going home not wanting to have his son squeezed in the middle 3 to a cart on this hot day. All of us prepaid through golf now so we're stuck having to leave him behind, and he received no refund from the course for his round. This ruined a planned day for all of us involved, we could of easily went to a course closer to home... The starter said he would find us on the course to make things right because 'this was all a misunderstanding' but nothing was done. This will be our last round after having played here for years and recommended this course to countless other golfers. Very disappointed in how the shop and starter handled this situation.

Last round in Florida before heading north. Picked this course because it is an awesome place. My wife and I played with two brothers thanks guys for a nice day on the links

No alert on GolfNow regarding work being done on the bunkers. A nice par 5 was played as a short par 4, tee off in the fairway!
